America’s Countdown Has Begun

Written by Gary Bauer | August 21, 2024


The 2024 presidential election is just over ten weeks away. This race is the most consequential in decades. The individual voted in as our next president – and those who control the next Congress – will determine whether our constitutional republic survives.


•    One party offers less government, fewer regulations, and lower taxes. The other tenders a bigger government, more onerous regulations, and higher taxes.

•    One party promotes parental rights. The other wants the government to decide how children are raised.

•    One party believes human beings are created as male and female. The other believes there are dozens of genders, and children can choose which one they want to be.

•    One party wants all children to be welcomed into the world and protected by the law. The other supports abortion-on-demand throughout a mother’s nine-month pregnancy – and perhaps even at her child’s birth.

•    One party will make our borders secure. The other insists on open borders and amnesty for the multiple thousands of people who have crossed our borders illegally.

•    One party values peace through strength. The other thinks we can pacify our enemies.

•    One party supports the US-Israel alliance. The other pressures Israel to surrender land and security.

•    One party seeks to preserve freedom of speech, religion, and assembly. The other tries to restrict those rights. 


Will we continue to embrace liberty under God, or will we choose a dystopian future of socialism and secularism? The people of America must choose. We pray that all will vote and that each voter will choose wisely.
